99% of the backyard fencing is 5-6’ tall. The gate you will enter and exit through is the only area that is 4’ tall. TONS of mature trees providing plenty of shade and a thicker tree line in the very back where your pup can sniff and explore! Lots of open lawn area to play and/or train. I will stay inside unless you would rather I come out and meet you and your pup. We have water bowls filled and a hose right there if you need more water. Patio has multiple patio tables and chairs if you want to chill while your pup plays. I have water, kool aid, maybe Gatorade available, just ask! I only require about 15 minutes heads up so I can make sure my dogs are put up and inside so you can enjoy the backyard alone with your dog. If your dog needs another dog friend to play with we do have several here who are extremely dog friendly and love to play ranging in size from a rat terrier up to a super sweet and friendly Doberman. But they have no problem staying inside too. We aim to please so just let me know what you may need!

Come bring your pets here to this beautiful country backyard. They can smell all the new smells and roam free in this beautiful fenced in yard. There's even a spot to dig and plenty of space for multiple pets!

This is my own land in the middle of Mississippi Palisade State Park in Savannah, Illinois. This is a nice place to bring your dog for a good run while camping in the park nothing fancy I mow it myself. I have trash cans available. I have three dogs of my own here that are socialized two are very elderly and one is still only three years old.

Almost 3 acres with beautiful scenery, nearby a creek and woods. Many trees, gardens and flowers.

We are a farm which raises horses and host equine events. We are situated way off the main road where wildlife can be seen. We are excited to offer a large fenced in area for your dog(s) to have fun!

Chewee, sandibean and the gang would like to invite your fur baby to come by and sniff til your hearts content! My dog mom has filter water, lots of bushes, trees, and toys for us to share. Or you can come and hang out solo, and I'll (chewee) be happy to sniff after you! The back yard has two gates, so if we need to have our own space while we look at one another we can! Dogs, cats, goats, piggies!! All are welcome!!

Super peaceful, quiet. Lovely place to let big or small dogs run. The spot is rural but feel free to have the dogs run about the 5 acre property. Explore the old barn. But warning! There may be an occasional critter! It’s not often but maybe once or twice a year our own dogs see something (or think they do). The scenery is beautiful. The traffic is low and is on a quiet country road (not on a highway). Before my mom passed, we always had her dogs out to run, so we appreciate being able to share with others. Any trash can be thrown in the big trash can put front. Lawn chairs available too. Small kiddie pool with a water pump for the pool or just a water bowl.

Have a nice lot with seating for yourselves, swingset for the littles and plenty of yard for the fur babies to run around.
